Her head felt numb.There were several tubes connected on her arm and head.She was clad in a hospital gown.The white walls,the bed and all the medical equipments.She was Surely in a hospital.But that wasn't the problem now,her head felt blank and empty.Sylvia could not recall her name much less how she ended up in a hospital.She felt as helpless as a new born.Right then, someone came in.He was a man.Tall and....good looking. "You are awake!" The guy said in a flat tone.He walked to her with his hands in his pocket. "How are you feeling?" His deep baritone infiltrated her hearing.
She wasn't sure how to answer.She just stared at him with a blank expression and then asked in a weak voice, "Who are you?" .The guy said nothing and went on to pressed the red button on the bed frame.Soon a doctor and two nurses came in.
"What am I doing here?" Julian could not hold back his scoff at her question.
"You were an accident.Don't you remember? Of course you wouldn't.Your brain would naturally forget that." The doctor said and then went on to examine her.She responded well to external stimuli and didn't lose her intellect as she followed his fingers with her eyes and knew numbers.Which is so fortunate as her brain had bore most of the impact. "What is your name?" That was the final question the doctor hoped to ask. "I..... don't..... know" She weakly responded. "I don't remember a thing.Who am I doctor?"
"You can't remember a thing?" Sylvia nodded to the doctor's question. "Did she lose her memory?" Julian asked the doctor, even though it was obvious,to him,it was a ploy.It has to be.
"We will do an MRI and a CT scan to know what's going on" The doctor told the nurses to prepare for the scan and left with the nurses trailing behind.
Julian mentally beat himself up.This is all his fault! If he hadn't let his crazy dumb sister drive his sports car, none of this would have happened.He would be stuck with her longer than he hoped.He glanced at her to see that she staring focusly at him.Those almond eyes were scrutinizing him in the most intense way possible.Does she know the way she was staring at him right now? Probably not or perhaps she was setting her true plan in motion.He sent an icy glare in return.
"You did not answer my question earlier,I asked who you were." Sylvia asked again.
She is a good actress.He'd give her that.
"Drop the act darling,it doesn't suit you." Amnesia? She is very creative.
"I am Julian." He started, still glaring at her like he wanted to choke her.
"And I am now a temporary guardian because some people use whatever means necessary to get to me.Shameless lots." He added with an edgey tone.
"What are you trying to say? That it's my fault?"
His silence answered her.Sylvia flared up also.Forget the good looks,he was a jerk,a definition of it.
"You think I am happy about being stuck in a hospital with not a single memory and having to see your damn face first thing."
Julian smirked,not buying anything she said. "That could have been your strategy, Miss stranger.I have encountered too much of your type to know." There was disdain in his dark soulless eyes.
Julian Rox is a heartthrob and a professional car racer.He had crazy fan girls who could go above and beyond to get close to him.Harassing him online and physically.He could never stay in a certain place for long as some crazy fans most especially girls always get his address.Others threw themselves at him with several tactics.He had no doubt that it is all an act to get his attention. "Close to you?" Sylvia scoffed, "Here's some brain-knocker dickhead! Being handsome doesn't make you all that.I don't know who nor do I want to so shut that hole in your face and apologize" Sylvia snapped.Julian's eyes darkened, she called him a dickhead.He was already annoyed that she could most likely be an unhinged stalker fan and now,she dared to insult him?
"What? You want to hit me?" Sylvia challenged.Very much noticing his dark expression.His cold gaze reminded her of a glacier. Julian leaned down slowly.His face just a few inches away from hers.
His dark orbs mirrored her reflection.Sylvia shrank into the bed,he had successfully intimidated her.Those eyes,she could not longer withstand their intensity.How could ones eyes be so cold?
